Air Conditioner, Heater, and More

The Friedrich M12YH Mini-Split Heat Pump gives you more bang for your buck and provides consistent comfort in every season with the following operating modes:

Cool – In cooling mode, this Friedrich ductless mini-split draws in 447 cubic feet of hot air per minute and exhausts it outside to the condenser unit. Using 11,500 BTUs of cooling power, this mini-split system effectively cools rooms up to 500 square feet.

Dry – As a dehumidifier, this Friedrich mini-split removes up to 3.8 pints of excess moisture per hour.

Heat – The built-in heater can be set up to 88 degrees Fahrenheit. This mode also features a minimum heat function, which maintains a room temperature of at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit to keep your indoor environment from getting uncomfortably cold.

Product Highlights

Programmable Timer: Use this to maintain your programmed settings while you’re away or asleep.

Auto-Swing Louvers: To experience maximum comfort, use the air sweep function to direct cool air in an angle that best accommodates your needs.

Reusable Air Filter: Clean the filter with warm water or a vacuum cleaner every three months to catch unwanted particles from your space.

Sleep Mode: This works in cool, heat, and dry mode and quietly keeps a pleasant room temperature while you rest.

Frost Control: If frost buildup occurs inside the air handler, the compressor will automatically shut down until the frost melts, protecting the unit from any damage.

Automatic Restart: In the event of a power failure, it automatically resumes operation in the last programmed setting once the power is restored. This function not only protects the compressor, but it also prevents circuit breaker damage.

Quiet Operation: This ductless split system operates efficiently around the clock while emitting minimal sound. Because the condensing unit is positioned outside your home, the indoor blower is virtually silent for little to no noise disruption in your indoor environment even on the highest setting.

Turbo Mode: The turbo function activates the maximum cooling setting. This feature enables you to set your ideal room temperature for immediate comfort. With the press of a button, the cooling system will use the highest fan speed to reach your set temperature right away.

Sensor: For effortless operation, use the sensor feature. This function determines the current room temperature and automatically adjusts the settings to an optimal level.

Extend: The extend feature prolongs operation for 10 additional minutes after the programmed settings have expired. This function can be used in cool and dry mode.

Indoor Blower Requirements: The blower unit should be mounted 6 inches below the ceiling and at least 8 feet above the floor of the room you choose to install the AC in. While you don’t need an exterior wall in your space to install a ductless split system, installation does require a 3-inch wall opening for the refrigeration lines.
